Patty was introduced to the world with her rendition of The Star Spangled Banner during the rededication of the Statue of Liberty in 1986. Virtually overnight she became one of the country's best-loved performers. Her version of the national anthem has been performed with the National Symphony, at the Indianapolis 500, the Dedication of Camp David Chapel and ABC's Fourth of July Special. Her debut full length symphonic pops album Broadway Stories, conducted by Maestro Jack Everly, was released to rave reviews. Sandi has performed with symphonies across the country, including the New York Pops, Boston Pops and the Dallas Symphony. She headlined the title role in sold out performances of the musical "Hello, Dolly!" with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, co-starring Tony Award winner Gary Beach.

"What a privilege it has been to share my story and faith through song for so many years," Patty says. "My heart is full of gratitude for so many who have been along this journey with me.

My desire is to use this next season and the "Forever Grateful" tour as an opportunity to say 'thank you' to as many people as possible."
